4 bool "Support U-Boot commands"
7 Enable U-Boot's command-line functions. This provides a means
8 to enter commands into U-Boot for a wide variety of purposes. It
9 also allows scripts (containing commands) to be executed.
10 Various commands and command categorys can be indivdually enabled.
11 Depending on the number of commands enabled, this can add
12 substantially to the size of U-Boot.
18 This option enables the "hush" shell (from Busybox) as command line
19 interpreter, thus enabling powerful command line syntax like
20 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'

115 Interface) is used mostly on x86 for providing information to the
116 Operating System about devices in the system. The tables are set up
117 by the firmware, typically U-Boot but possibly an earlier firmware
118 module, if U-Boot is chain-loaded from something else. ACPI tables
119 can also include code, to perform hardware-specific tasks required
120 by the Operating Systems. This allows some amount of separation
121 between the firmware and OS, and is particularly useful when you
122 want to make hardware changes without the OS needing to be adjusted.

1117 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1119 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1120 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1121 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1125 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1127 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1128 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1129 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1130 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1132 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1133 done and in what order.
1135 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1136 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1137 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1138 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1139 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1142 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1143 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1144 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1146 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1147 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1149 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1150 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1152 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1153 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1154 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1155 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1156 not the data read/written.

2164 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
2167 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
2168 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
2169 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
2170 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
2174 bool "Enable the 'blob' command"
2175 depends on !MX6ULL && !MX6SLL && !MX6SL
2176 select IMX_HAB if ARCH_MX6 || ARCH_MX7 || ARCH_MX7ULP || ARCH_IMX8M
2178 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
2180 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
2181 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
2182 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
2183 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
2185 Encapsulating data as a blob
2186 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
2187 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
2188 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
2189 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
2190 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
2191 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
2194 During decapsulation, the reverse process is performed to get back
2198 blob enc - encapsulating data as a cryptgraphic blob
2199 blob dec - decapsulating cryptgraphic blob to get the data
2203 blob enc src dst len km
2205 Encapsulate and create blob of data $len bytes long
2206 at address $src and store the result at address $dst.
2207 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
2208 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
2209 modifier should be 16 byte long.
2211 blob dec src dst len km
2213 Decapsulate the blob of data at address $src and
2214 store result of $len byte at addr $dst.
2215 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
